Editorial Reviews

Twice the treehouse, twice the fun? You bet.... Denton's furiously scrawled line drawings milk the silly, gross-out gags for everything they're worth. Kids should be flipping pages faster than a pair of inflatable underpants can skyrocket the young heroes to safety.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review on The 26-Story Treehouse

“This zany sequel, as much cartoon illustration as text, is an almost nonstop adventure.” —Booklist on The 26-Story Treehouse

“The conversational, matter-of-fact narration is a delightful contrast to the off-the-wall story line. Wildly humorous without being smart-alecky or sarcastic, this is a top choice for middle-grade readers.” —School Library Journal on The 26-Story Treehouse

“Anarchic absurdity at its best.... Denton's manic cartooning captures every twist and turn in hilarious detail... a sequel was published last year in Australia and can't arrive soon enough.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review on The 13-Story Treehouse

“Will appeal to fans of Jeff Kinney and Dav Pilkey...The wonderfully random slapstick humor is tailor-made for reluctant readers... A treat for all.” —Booklist on The 13-Story Treehouse
